DM9 - Correcting Student Cohort (Grad Yr)

To locate students who have incorrect cohort (Base yr) year data, use the following data mining report.

Students >> Data Mining

1) Enter “Grad-NY-Cohort Year” in the Report Name field in the bottom right corner of the window to locate the report. This report should be used with NO changes.

2) The fields included on the report are shown here.

3) Click to select the report.

4) Click the Excel button on the right of the window.

5) The fields for

a) Grad Yr b) NY Grad Yr, and c) Cohort Yr (Base Year)

6) The NY Grad year and the cohort (base) year should be THE SAME unless the student has a “Y” in the Ret(ained) column, then the Grad Year and NY Grad Yr will be one more. (See example below.)

7) To correct student Cohort (Base) year, go to student profile >> General >> Profile and edit.

8)

Base Yr = Cohort Yr

Ret = Y and Base Yr is 2021, so the NY Grad and Grad Yr are 2022

All should be the same if student does NOT

have “Y” in Ret.
